BORDER TROUBLES.
Difficulties with tho Indians I'm New
Mexico.

ALBUQUERQUE, May 9.-The Democratic
Gallup special says: A serious difficulty
occurred with the Navajo Indians about
8 O clock yesterday morning at Defiance
Station, seven miles west of here. The
trouble commenced in store in the vii
lage, where an Indian was shot in dis
pute by a clerk named Allen. Borland,
the owner Of the store, and his wife,
when they found out what had happened,
fled for Gallup on horseback. They were
intercepted by the Indians, who threat
encd to kill them. Borland succeeded In
quieting them by giving up his weapons,
and finally they permitted him to con
tinue his journey. Meanwhile, Allen
and an old man named Hans barricaded
the upper story of the store to defend
themselves from an attack. The Indians
broke into the store and carried away
everything valuable. An hour after the
shooting a freight train on the Atlantic
& Pacific passed. Allen succeeded in
making the train and came to Gallup, bat
Hans missed II and after being followed
by the Indians some distance reached
Gallup also. A detachment of cavalry
from Fort Wingate has gone to Defiance,
which will prevent further bloodshed.
